Easy Homemade Coconut Granola With Chocolate Chips & Pecans
To make this recipe for Pecan Chocolate Chip Coconut Granola, you'll need a few pantry staples. This gluten-free, dairy-free snack is perfect for when you're craving something sweet on the go.
I was inspired by the flavors of German chocolate cake when creating this granola. Toasted pecans, coconut flakes, and honey mimic the taste of coconut pecan frosting. The addition of semi-sweet chocolate chips adds a delightful hint of chocolate to the mix. The combination of crunchy, chewy, salty, and sweet flavors is truly delicious.
You can easily whip up a batch of this granola at the beginning of the week and store it in individual containers for easy grab-and-go snacks. If you're in the mood for a savory snack, be sure to check out my smoky spicy snack mix recipe too.
This recipe is straightforward and requires just a few simple steps. Preheat your oven to 300 degrees, mix the ingredients together, bake until lightly browned, and then cool before adding the chocolate chips. Be mindful not to overbake the granola, as nuts and honey can burn quickly.
Feel free to customize this granola recipe based on your favorite desserts. For a chocolate chip cookie-inspired version, swap pecans for walnuts and add vanilla extract. If you're a dark chocolate lover, use dark chocolate chips instead. And for a white chocolate macadamia twist, use white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts.
Storing this granola is simple. Keep it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze it for longer storage. To make it a convenient snack, portion it into small reusable bags or mini jars.
Homemade granola never lasts long in my house - it's just too tasty! I'm always amazed at how easy it is to make, and the flavor combinations are endless.
